Tyler Hoechlin cast as Superman in “Supergirl”

The Man of Steel has finally been revealed. The crew behind the CBS CW drama Supergirl has announced that Tyler Hoechlin (Teen Wolf, 7th Heaven) will guest star in the first two episodes of the second season as Superman.

“Greg [Berlanti] and I have wanted to work with Tyler for ages, so this worked out perfectly because Tyler is Superman,” Supergirl showrunner Andrew Kreisberg said in a statement. “We are so thrilled and humbled to add another amazing actor to the legacy of this iconic character.

While the Man of Steel has been seen in glimpes and alt-future storylines in season one, this will be the first time that the character will be getting real screen time.

Supergirl returns for its second season this fall on the CW, Mondays at 8:00 PM.
